'At one point or another, it's never easy to be suffering on everybody's wheels' – Simon Yates reveals why his Visma-Lease a Bike transfer could radically boost his career

Simon Yates has never been one to beat around the bush, and when he is asked about the reason behind quitting Jayco-AIUIa, his lifelong professional team, for Visma-Lease a Bike, he gets straight to the point. After over a decade at Jayco, he says, he felt he was repeatedly at the upper limits of what he could achieve with the Australian squad.

“Maybe I’ll do worse here [in Visma], but I got the feeling I had got the best out of what I could do there [in Jayco],” Yates told a small group of reporters at his new team’s media day this January.

“So that was also another reason to make the change, because at one point or another, it’s never easy to be suffering on everybody’s wheels.”
